BOTB Round 4: Le Chanson de Roland


art by aby


The great wandering King, Tobi-han—leader and patron of the Brown Knights—has returned from his most recent journeys with an enriched understanding of and fascination with music, which he hopes to pass on to all of you!


King Tobi-han found this musical cipher in the far north of France, while he was on the trail of a very old story he heard had some connection to music. After consulting experts on the mysterious puzzle, the following things were determined:
1. Any unique word can only be used in the cipher once.
2. The sharp on the left needs to be filled with colour-related words. The sharp on the right needs to be filled with music-related words.

Here's Tobi-han's completed cipher! He's justified them this way:
1. A cherry is red.
2. Shale is grey.
3. Halvas, a type of confectionary, is orange.
4. An body's organ is red or brown.
1. Notes are the script of music.
2. A sonata is a type of musical composition.
3. Treble is a music cleff.
4. Tabla is a type of musical drum.


Once he penned the last word, he felt much more connected to his music, and heard this song in his head:

King Tobi-han wants you to enrich your love of music as well. Fill in a cipher of your own, and he'll give you four random cards and one note for your band. Fill in a cipher with words no one else has used and he'll give you a random crayon, too! You're allowed to use one word per sharp which has already been used by another member. You do not have to justify your words like Tobi-han has, though you're free to if you'd like. Feel free to use this form:



You have until August 24th at 12:00 (noon) in CET timezone (UTC+1). King Tobi-han believes in justice and fairness for all, so late answers will not be accepted. Now, go forth and enjoy music, with the blessing of King Tobi-han!
